From the Paclnc Blade
Through the courtesy of friends we
have, since our last issue, taken a ride
out to point where an A. L. & s. f.
force of graders is at work, and have
gained quite defuite idea of the status
of railroad affairs between San Diego
and this place. The camp we visited is
that of Mccormick & Lawler. contrac-
tors, and is situated on the Whiting
place about twelve miles southeast
of Santa Ana. A force of
about eighty men is there work
ing, and the scene is busy one. The
work in that vicinity is quite heavy on
account of numerous somewhat deep
runways. About three miles Of grading
have there been completed. On the other
side of San Juan Capistrano five miles of
grading is now completed, and force of
about thirty five men, under Grant Bros,
contractors, is at work at point nine
miles the other side of Capistrano. More
men are constantly being added to these
forces and times are quite lively along the
line. Five or six companies of A. T. &
s. F. surveyors and about the same mum.
ber Of Southern Pacific surveyors are
surveying between here and San Diego.
As work on the Riverside and Los Ange-
les branch is now progressing at the rate
of about mile day, it may safely be
calculated that work on that branch
will ere long be concluded, and that the
full force " i'll then be placed upon this
line. If no new developments are re-
corded, it is safe to presume that iron
rails will be laid between this point and
San Diego within few months. Ger
tainly work at present looks like busi--
ness, and this would seem to indicate,
business intentions for the future.
